SharePoint Dragons

If you want to reuse Performance Point Services 2010 in a non-SharePoint environment, there are a couple of options available:

• The easiest way to reuse the UI would be via WSRP, but that’s not supported by PPS.
• Screen scraping is another possibility, but that’s a hack.
• You can <iframe> a dashboard, but then, the SharePoint UI is still visible.

PPS itself offers the following possibilities:

• If you view a dashboard in the browser, it directly interacts with the BIMonitoringServiceApplicationProxy. The proxy communicates to the PPS shared service (a WCF service called BIMonitoringService.svc). You can try to leverage that.
• If you’re creating a cuustom asp.net page you can talk to the rendering web service (PPSRenderingService.json) which eventually also talks to the BIMonitoringServiceApplicationProxy.
• You can talk to the Authoring web service (PPSAuthoringService.asmx) that eventually also talks to the BIMonitoringServiceApplicationProxy.

And those are the options that are there for you.
